Ninad Gadgil, 3M India

100 Open startups in India is an initiative that can really help foster proactive collaboration between start-ups and the corporate sector. This symbiotic exchange of ideas and knowledge helps companies gain from knowledge on new technologies and products, cultural refresh, exposure to new talent and innovative opportunities to collaborate. Start-ups also stand to gain from industry expertise through coaching & mentoring and leveraging opportunities for incubation of great ideas to fully funded, commercialized solutions. 3M is proud to be a founding member of the 100 Open Startups in India initiative and is keen to witness its progress in building a strong start-up ecosystem in India.

100 openstartups are actually helping the emerging start-ups in various geographies to understand what big companies are indeed interested. This is indeed an excellent platform for both big companies as well as small entrepreneurs who aspires to see a big vision.

Lívia Cunha, Dr. CUCO

It is really meaningful because it validates everything we've been doing with so much love until today." The opportunity to exchange with corporate executives willing to co-operate more than only focusing on the financial aspects were the highlight of our moments in the Oiweek.

Isabela Botelho, Pin People

We talked for two days with at least 20 large companies, which would usually have taken at least a year to get the lead and the access to this type of company, and are probably going to do a pilot with at least 10 of them.

Gerson Ferraz, Beenergy

Great event, congratulations to the entire team. We made excellent contacts, partners, customers and friends. We will return every year. We went to this was as a startup, in the next, maybe, we will go as a connected company, taking advantage of every opportunity that this ecosystem provided us. Thank you!!!

Otávio Yamanaka, CONFIRM8

As CEO of the startup CONFIRM8, the purpose of this event was extremely important to help healing the most chronic pain of any startup, the access to the market. Having an idea and putting it into practice is a very difficult task, in which many give up along the way as they cannot be noticed by strategic players. And this event creates not only an enabling environment to generate opportunities with high chances of success, but mainly, it provides a unique experience of relationship that was missing to entrepreneurs. That was a perfect match that created a constructive energy able to overcome major obstacles. Let's always be fearless! Big hug! Cheers!

Marcelo Braga, REACHR powered by SEARCH

high level event. It opened doors for start-ups to test their products, listening to the opinion of big companies, investors and it was an opportunity to have a greater media exposure. We learn in these days of event which would normally take one year. We had opportunities to foster business, partnerships and raise funds from investors. Congratulations to the organizers for providing this sensational experience to start-ups!

Esthevan Gasparoto, Treevia Florestal

Participating of OIWEEK 2016 and being among the movement's TOP100 has given us a uncomparable learning. By far it was the best startup program we've ever participated. Mainly on the context of our startup, whose focus is B2B, the fact that exists a process specifically with the goal of connecting startups and big companies is something fantastic. Without a doubt they can count on us next cicle.
